A very interesting read. I loved the use of the multiverse here, it was imaginative and gripping. The story surprised me at multiple points. Our primary Jason did irritate me at times, and I could have done with less romance in the book. But overall, good read.

Literally incredible I cannot describe how amazing it is the way it combines theoretical physics with thriller

won’t give any spoilers but the last few chapters are VERY intense and I was reading the ending through tears with several people on the bus staring at me 

I forget how much I love books where the MC is actually a GOOD person who you’re attached to- Jason is very lovable and someone you really care about and are rooting for, even in his darkest moments.

A beautiful story about love and family, with a healthy amount of murder and intense action.
